@bringmearainbow thanks hopefully not 🙏 not sure I haven't tracked my ovulation this time but going by CM I think maybe the 31st of march, altho I used to ovulate around day 9/10 which would of been the 24/25th 😩
Altho ovulation prob changed after my miscarriages!
I fell pregnant so easily for the 2 miscarriages whereas it took me a year to conceive my son 🫣

@Daniki you aren’t out yet !! Still a long way to go!

I am preparing lunch for 11 tomorrow 🙈 starting early so I don’t get flustered and can enjoy it! 7dpo here, boobs settled today so guess it was a fluke last night

Hope you all have a lovely Easter weekend if you celebrate / if not a lush bank hol!
Hoping the Easter bunny brings me a BFP 😭

Wow @lottieb92 ,that will certainly take your mind off things! Lol sorry to hear symptoms aren't here today.. however not all symptoms are everyday I'm told, or at all... some people get a BFP after no symptoms at all! Fingers crossed for yours! Xxx

@Daniki I agree you're still very early got plenty of time. What dpo are you?

@emmatcc1 hmmm I wouldn't worry too much about that drop it's not very much and still well above your coverline I have often had little ups and downs in the LP. See what it does tomorrow

@lottieb92 wow 11! I don't envy you that task 😂 I hope it all runs smoothly for you 🤞🏼

Daniki · 08/04/2023 14:06

@lottieb92 oh my god you'll have your hands full tomorrow 😂 I'm working the whole wknd so I'm kept busy which is great Il try and leave testing until Monday but knowing me I'll test again in the morning 🫣

@bringmearainbow I tell myself every month I will write down every symptom to compare and never do so. I'm having quite sore boobs and nipples but I forgot if that happens every month at this time. Also pre af symptoms are caused by peak progesterone which would explain the soreness but not sure why would temps drop if that's also on progesterone. Just have to wait and see what happens.

@bringmearainbow not actually due until the 14th but I would of thought I'd of got a very faint line at this stage 🙈

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 12:09

@emmatcc1 I think that would be quite early for a AF temp drop surely 🤔 how much has it dropped? Can you share your chart

@Daniki ahhh lovely it's rubbish when is AF due?

Daniki · 08/04/2023 12:03

Tested again this morn and it was negative 😩 think I could be out!

emmatcc1 · 08/04/2023 11:51

@bringmearainbow AF is due on wednesday was really hopefull as temps were only rising at an even rate and now dropped for 0.2

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 11:41

@emmatcc1 ahhh lovely that's rubbish when is AF due?

8dpo test is a BFN

emmatcc1 · 08/04/2023 09:05

Temps dropped today at 11dpo pretty sure it af and not implantation

@Floralsandsmiles oh it’s too early for sure … haha I just am a negative Nelly and I like to get it over and done nice and early, then just expect nothing.

anything after 11DPO is more ideal! So I salute you for holding out!

I should take my own advice and usually I don’t test this early, but I know I can’t this month I gave it my all and just want to pee on a stick and move on 🙈

@lottieb92 I read somewhere that as soon as its implanted, it should show up on a test.. however I don't believe that, not this early. I will wait till 10dpo. hope that I have no more pink tinge, which could be implantation bleed.. or that I havent started my spotting on.9dpo again.. xxx

lottieb92 · 07/04/2023 16:24

@Mushroo that’s exciting! Is it easy@home tests?
I find I usually peak 24 hrs after a high, so testing twice daily from my first high reading! Then it shots back down quickly.

We are all different of course, but anything from now baby dancing is indeed perfect timing 🤞🏻✨

Yup! Going to test again tonight and twice a day to make sure I catch the peak.

Keeping my fingers crossed for a good month!

@Floralsandsmiles im hoping so much for you it’s a positive sign 🤞🏻✨💗

noting my symptoms today, as I wasn’t spotting them but sat on the sofa about to watch a show and can’t help but notice my boobies

I am 6dpo today, had a really bad (gasping breath holding, bent over and even said “ouch”) low cramp today outside after lunch in the garden and DH was actually concerned lol….

And tonight boobs feel heavier and a bit ‘stingy’ only way to describe it, not an ache, not painful, just like a bit of a dull sting sensation 🤣

could all be nothing - I just have a gut feeling it’s nothing - but noting it just on the off chance it’ll be amazing to be proven wrong!

I really hope so @lottieb92 ! I'm damn near terrified!!! Xxx

lottieb92 · 07/04/2023 21:02

I mean do boobs even twinge like that this early!? Probably not, I thought I’d just had a shower too hot and the heat of the day had gotten to me.

but it’s been an hour and they’re playing games with me

@Floralsandsmiles I’d been meaning to ask what day you decided to have your Day 21 test on. Fingers crossed you won’t actually need any of them!

Well here’s a random thing - I have some really odd pulling and cramping low down, which would be exciting …. were it not for the fact that it’s on the side where I don’t actually have a tube or ovary! 🙄

So I ovulated on cd16 (31st march) and took the test on Cd22 (6th april)..

O no @Fallulah ! That's annoying that you can't get excited about that! Xxx

@Floralsandsmiles oooh sounds promising 🤞🏼 I hope it isn't AF spotting for you! Have you had any blood tests to check your progesterone levels?

@Angelselevenx no I don't think I'll get a chance to hide it would be too obvious in our bathroom 🙄 I'll have to try and do a hold and do one a bit later 😂 ahhh yes it probably will be a bit delayed

Literally had them yesterday @bringmearainbow ! Talk about timing! Xxx
